Words will never contain JFK, the very brightest of everything we ever hoped to be.

Hey, Trump. You don’t need to push Putin’s 28-point plan to end the war in Ukraine. Just go with the one point plan to end it: Russia gets the hell out of Ukraine.

We are boycotting the fascist corporations. NO Black Friday for them this year.
I do want to encourage you to shop small businesses though. These are the businesses most hurt by corporate greed.
If you’re a small business, drop a link with your site and what you sell. We want to support YOU!!

Alabama finally has someone ready to fight for the Alabama instead of letting Tuberville, a non-resident drifter, run his mouth from Florida.
Doug is stepping in with actual roots, actual plans, and an actual stake in the future of the state.

So I’ve made it official folks: I’ve filed the paperwork to run for Governor of Alabama. It’s time to remind this state of who we are and what we can accomplish together.

If the ruling tossing out Texas racially gerrymandered maps holds, and since Indiana failed to redraw theirs, plus Democrats gaining a seat in Utah, and with California voters’ new maps — Democrats will actually win the redistricting fight.
And remember, Trump started this mess.

Independents outvoted Dems in 24 and were tied with Reps. They are crucial to either party in future. As an Indie myself, neither party is good at reaching out to the Indies. Arguably the Dems are worse at it. I believe either side could win back Indies if they became relevant, as Bernie says.
